He was born in Gingen an der Fils in Baden Württemberg, in southern Germany. As a nine-year-old toddler he scored 16 goals in a 20 - 0 game against a neighbouring town.

By trade he is a baker, has a helicopter permit.

When playing home games for Spurs he drove to and from the grounds in his VW Beetle.

He played for Germany and managed the national team. His assistant was Joachim Löw.
